Default DLR Still Getting Slower

I've noticed recently that the frighteningly wobbly stretch of DLR
from Mudchute to Crossharbour now seems to have a speed restriction,
although it still manages to wobble a surprising amount at very low
speed. I wonder if an opportunity will be taken during the works that
are about to start to fix whatever the problem is, or whether the
whole line will progressively be progressively reduced to a crawl.

Also, I wonder if this new speed restriction is due to the wobbling
actually having been unsafe, or was just to stop complaints from
alarmed passengers.
